Fantastic way to spend a day
Mohammad was a fantastic tour guide who gave a lot of detail and insight into the culture and history of Oman. If I was pressed to name a favourite moment, I would say the highlight of the day was the view at Diana's Point in Jebel Akhdar, but there really was not one part that I did not enjoy from wandering around the fortress to exploring the old village. Would highly recommend this trip to everyone. The organisation was seamless and the service flawless.
A great day trip to towns, markets and mountains
This was the second tour on our trip in Oman with our guide Mr Juma al harthy. Once again he was so informative and attentive and really makes you feel like one of his family. A truly great guide if you are lucky enough to have him. We started the day going round the markets / fort in Nizwa followed by a drive up into the mountains to Jebel Akhdar (which is a must see!) This tour is great for anyone who wants to see different areas in Oman such as mountains or old towns or, wanting to buy and try some local produce / gifts whilst also seeing some traditional aspects at the same time. Five stars all round.
